Vantaggi
Great pay, fairly good communication from upper management, air conditioned plant, room for job improvement, cost saving opportunities and safety and environmental improvements.
Svantaggi
An "us verses them" mentality from everyone at all levels. Room for improvement, but zero support. No concern with continuous improvement, just run the line and damn the rest. Upper management undermines lower management. The Plant Manager has no idea what it takes to be on a winning team. Segregated parking. Management directed not to fraternize with hourly employees. Signs of lean manufacturing and Six Sigma abound, but no real understanding or support from management. The Arlington location needs a "house cleaning" of all management. Many members of management don't have the background or experience to deal with the issues they face. The location needs some clear priorities, structure and discipline.
